House of Books

Great collection of books at amazing prices. Love the cook books! Previously used to be on the corner next to Waitrose. Glad there's an independent bookshop back in crouch end!

Fantastic little book shop. Bought two enormous hard back photography books for £45 which at regular retail price would have cost me £110!!
They have a very good selection of books thag are ridiculously cheap and the shop itself has a lovely relaxed atmosphere.
Great service AND a loyalty card, what more could you ask for?

You can get really good prices for well known books (around £3-5) resulting in cheaper buys than amazon!
You also get a loyalty card and get a discount after you buy 10 books.
They have an excellent selection of books including classics, fiction, history, science, nature, cooking, kids books, etc
They also have a very nice collection of cards and other book related gifts

I bought two books here as a present. There is such a wide array and they are organised so nicely. The interior is so cozy and comforting! The books are also quite cheap. They recently did this system called ‘Blind Book Date’ where the books were wrapped in paper, and you only got the information they put in the back of the tag (what genre and topics it covers, for example). Will definitely come back!

Staff not briefed, we were told when phoned that they took second books, to find when we got there that they didn't, after carrying a heavy box some distance to the shop, just said they would take them to the charity shop for us, we could have done that in the first place.

Lovely bookshop with a wide range of books. Clearly labelled bookshelves so you can find what you want and helpful staff on hand.

Great book store - huge wide range at very good prices. Also sell lovely cards and stationery. Really friendly staff. They do a loyalty card so pick one up and come back :)

Awesome bookstore with an extensive collection of sci fi and very knowledgeable staff
